He doesn't 1) install, 2) approves any bowl, 3) or should he. He can refuse to make bidet seats any time, but prefers wașiki seats instead.

He directly provides releases for Windows x64/ARM64, Linux x86_64/ARM32/ARM64 (in AppImage format), and macOS. He also explicitly forbids modifications, and since he considers "pre-configured settings" to be modifications, and this is basically barring any other distribution.

So while ultimately you're right in that he doesn't install it himself, he provides a super-simple "do it yourself" kit for people who live in apartments, while making anyone else who lives in a house have to assemble it from a million separate pieces themselves.

Note that I'm sympathetic, and I don't know what the solution here is, but hopefully everyone figures it out...

My take on a better analogy:

The bidet maker is pissed because people complain to him that their bidet is leaking or has cracks. He's annoyed at a distribution/installation company because they fumbled, so he'll handle installation himself but only to the houses he approves.

Oh, and the bidets are free and nobody gets paid a cent.

I don't think that's where we're failing.

It became very obvious, a couple of weeks into Israel's retaliation, that this wasn't ever about the Hamas attacks but about wiping out every single Palestinian from Gaza.

But the EU is still searching for a spine, the US condones it, and the rest of the world doesn't really care enough.

And here we are, with dozens and dozens of innocent people being massacred every single day. It makes me sick to my stomach...

Nobody should be barred from posting *their* art online, even if it's abysmal, as long as it's actually theirs.

Here's my 15 second, god awful taco:


I feel you, I've spent so long grinding drivers licenses and playing absurd cups like that. Unfortunately not many options, and even Motorsport was... meh.

Project Cars 2 is a frequent recommendation, but it's delisted. Then there's mods for other games, like automobilista 2, but not official. I wouldn't expect much from AC Evo either, with how the launch was basically online-mandated and the series not having much of career mode...

I appreciate the post and the recommendations, but none of these games scratch the same itch that Forza Motorsport is meant to scratch.

The alternatives are the competitors like ACC, Gran Turismo 7 or iRacing (possibly race room) - games focused on the realism and online competition.

*Mass tourism*.

Mass tourism is a cancer that needs to be irradiated from any proper city. That shit brings very little money, and mobs of unruly, uneducated dimwits that think they own someone's soul because they spent €5 on a couple of the cheapest drinks on the menu.

Don't know about availability in the US, but at least in Europe there are many, many alternatives out there, both from traditional brands (Mercedes, BMW, etc etc) and more recently, from Chinese brands.

A friend bought a BYD Seal the other day, he got a total bargain for their top version at 41k€, but that got me looking into them, and their lineup is looking pretty impressive.

In Europe at least, Chinese cars.

Last month on my neck of the woods, YoY car sales were up 16% and yet Tesla was down 68% this month alone, while BYD was up *331,6%* (yes, 3 digits).

With these changes, Tesla isn't even in the top 10 anymore (at one point it was #2!) and has been leapfrogged by BYD, who seems very likely to continue climbing and break into the top 3 sellers.

Tesla is dead.

He who sucketh a dick can accommodate a second one.

Why are you crossing out China?

Did you miss the massive investments China is doing there, to buy influence?

Here's one: https://www.businessinsider.com/satellite-photos-show-byds-massive-hungary-factory-taking-shape-2025-4

This is the sort of stupidification of issues that we see from bot farms: cherry pick one point, then blow it out of proportion so that there's no more nuance, no more gray, no room for middle ground.

Everything becomes black and white, polarised, simple: with us or against us.

Fucking moron.

This just hands over an EU country to the Russian and Chinese influences, which is why Hungary is where it's at in the first place.

This is the kind of thing that needs covert counter-ops: undermine and question orban at every online forum, constantly make Putin look bad, push against every single government policy, etc.

So basically what they're doing to every other western nation.

It said the White House had conflated that incident with a “completely separate” report by BBC Verify, the corporation’s factchecking team, which found a viral video posted on social media was not linked to the aid distribution centre it claimed to show. “This video did not run on BBC news channels and had not informed our reporting,” it said. “Conflating these two stories is simply misleading.”

BBC is misunderstanding this. They didn't conflate the two separate things *intentionally*.

I fully believe they did it out of sheer incompetence and ignorance, and when they realised the mistake, they did what they always do and doubled down on it. The dimwits who elect them will get confused otherwise.

Ah I see, it's kinda like an external login where only specified data is shared (age in this case). The 3rd party would know nothing else, but the government would know that you asked for that check from that service...

Not as bad as corps having the data directly, but not perfect....

What is this system? I'm unfamiliar.

They know, they tried to do that on Greenland with the locals. It failed miserably...

I meam, what manufactured goods does America export to China that are that important?

You didnt think that was worth doing when you brought it up, so why would I. You sure put in the effort, 1-line man.

You seem to be struggling a bit, so let me help you out: the title does nothing to address the point that euromaida or whatever is not reputable.
